Dynasty Values to Target
Let’s check out the top dynasty fantasy football values to target.
Houston Texans: WR John Metchie | ADP: 150.67 (WR64)
We never got to see John Metchie on the field in 2022. After tearing his ACL to end his college career, Metchie received the terrible news he’d been diagnosed with leukemia. He looks to be recovering fully as he’s been participating in the Texans’ offseason program, and C.J. Stroud will need weapons to throw to. Metchie was the 44th-overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, and he should be provided every opportunity to get on the field, assuming he’s fully recovered.
Indianapolis Colts: WR Alec Pierce | ADP: 161.50 (WR69)
Considering the tumultuous season the Colts had from a quarterback perspective, we should have probably been more impressed with Alec Pierce’s rookie season. All the Colts’ weapons had a disappointing season, but Pierce still managed to rack up nearly 600 yards receiving. Expect Anthony Richardson to be under center sooner than later for the Colts and to unlock the potential of the Colts’ skill players in the process. Alec Pierce is a perfect example of a player you can draft to be a bench player, but he could emerge as a threat on the boundary for the Colts this season.
Jacksonville Jaguars: WR Christian Kirk | ADP: 73.17 (WR37)
The state of the Jaguars’ pass catchers is an interesting one. Calvin Ridley returns from suspension and will debut with the team. But truth be told, the player that might impact the most is Zay Jones, not Christian Kirk. Kirk led the Jaguars in targets, receptions and receiving yards last year. While Ridley could slide into that lead role, Kirk still has a path to seeing north of 120 targets. Playing with one of the best young quarterbacks in the league, the Jaguars’ passing attack could explode in 2023.
